I hope that you've got plenty of time for my list...

1) Lost my garage of the past 7 years to a construction project, making the submarine an outdoor car from now on. :-(

2) Two broken motor mount bolts on a Sunday night while 650 miles from home. (Discovered use #103 for a ratcheting tie-down strap to get home!)

3) Cracked motor mount on subsequent inspection.

4) Clutch [possibly] slipping on hard launches.

5) Flat tire in the middle of the night at Yazgur's Farm (Woodstock site for you young'uns).
6) Flaky fuel gauge that resulted in running out of gas in the middle of an autox test run. (This one subsequently fixed itself!)
7) Apparently got dumped by my darling future bride Sandra. :-)
8) Leaking cooler spilled 2 gallons of water all over my trunk area.

9) Zymol Carbon jar popped open in my tire trailer en-route to Michigan, covering all of my race gear and clothes for the weekend in Zymol slime. (Not really a TT problem per se.)
10) Coned away my last chance at a ProSolo trophy in Oscoda. :-(
11) My "good luck nun" (who prays for my safety whenever I go racing) died on Friday. :-( :-( :-(

12) Did I mention that I think Sandra dumped me??? :-)
Good ridance, June 2001!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
